What you where trying to achieve?
There is an offline update for c636 in this thread post number 3 https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/help/help-wiped-products-vendo-bootloop-t3534594/page8
You need sd card and copy the dload folder to ur sd,press 3 buttons,power+ vol up+ vol down till the update start.

Yes I know thought I had on microsd already

But unsure if this will work via flashing only OEM partition as I currently only have L09C34B122 and do not get any updates as Optus Aus are extremely slow at releases. I am trying to getting around extremely over priced debrand of funkyhuawei

3- restore oeminfo for C636 http://www.mediafire.com/?szws87sk7rrkqr6
4- dload c636 offline firmware https://forum.xda-developers.com/ma...products-vendo-bootloop-t3534594/post70465883
5- unlock bootloader again
6-install twrp again
7- flash hw_data for c636b136 http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...f1/full/hw/spcseas/update_full_hw_spcseas.zip
8-dload c636 offline firmware again to have locked bootloader and get rid of the warning message lol
9 factory rest from settings.
10-use system update to get the latest firmware.

If I do this and relock the bootloader, will I still be able to use android pay?

That's a good question, would Android Pay work on devices who were unlocked, but are now re-locked again?

Accidentally deleted /data when flashing custom ROM

After doing a factory reset with TWRP (including /data), I flashed the custom ROM, as it got stucked in a bootloop, I tried to install stock firmware. I tried so using the dload method on external SD and internal storage as well. But both get to 5% and fail. I restored my backup but without /data because TWRP did not allowed me to back it up. Now it's running but without many apps. I would like to go back to stock. Any ideas?
My version is MHA-L29C636B158

For the mate 9 there actually are 2 Offline Firmwares available. a Chinese for the MHA-L00 and the other one is the international version, C636. Offline says they don't need the verification which for you fails at 5 percent. They will go through for sure using the dload method. Just ask Google for " Mate 9 offline firmware C636"
another solution​ for your problem is to download the specas data for your specific firmware using Firmware Finder ( Google play ) and flash it via TWRP.
Once done your phone should run regular.
You will get an error within TWRP but you may ignore it, the flash process will success, even it it shows something else.
Last step Wipe cache and dalvik cache, then reboot

Thanks! I tried downloading public/update_data_full_public.zip from Firmware Finder, i flashed it with TWRP but everything looks the same. So now I´m downloading this ffirmware https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9GG_Oe0gQDyUWlCS3lTRm5IOUE/view , that i found on this https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-rebrand-chinese-al00-mate9-to-t3554656 thread, so i will try updating it with that. Should I flash hw_data for c636b136 (my actual version is c636b158),after flashing the previus step, as said on that thread?

for the international c636 you need the update_full_hw_spcseas.zip and the update_vendor.app

Use this instead https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108
It will let you update to the latest C636 build.
You'll have to unlock bootloader again after it's finished, and reflash twrp.
Though if you just want to use AurRom the one you downloaded will be enough.
And yes you will need too flash B136 hw and Public.

Great, so i should download the update_full_hw_spcseas.zip for C636B158 from FF, and the update_vendor.app from the offlline C636 firmware. But i don´t quite understand the steps.
should i do like this?:
1- Flash offline C636, using dloader´s method .
2-Flashing TWRP
3-Flash update_full_hw_spcseas.zip from C636B158.
4-Done?
Sorry for so many questions but never had a Huawei before, and this is more complex than I expected.

Thanks all, the flashing via dloader´s method succeded, but now i have the b110 its not a problem.

you may update it through systemupdate if your system is untouched.
Any huawei apps now working?

Huawei P8 (Nova) Lite 2017 Soft-bricked, No OS, can't flash any firmware

Hi, my son's phone became unusable after clicking on an MMS link. I have since been able to unlock and get TWRP installed on it. After that I am unable to flash ANY kind of firmware on it (PRA-LX2). It had already updated to the latest version of EMUI droid 6. No matter trying to flash via Fastboot, sideload or SD card nothing works. In some places I found info saying that one can't flash lower versions of Android as the latest update changes the partitions. Huawei says the latest update is unavailable for download, so no way to get it as obviously HiSuite does not work.
If anyone can help me out I'd be very grateful. If there is any other info anyone needs about this problem please just let me know and I'll do my best to find what you need to help. Thanks

Reisntalling B385 stock rom to my FRD-L04

Hi guys,
I am currently trying to figure out how to reinstall a clean version of the B385 for my FRD-L04. I have downloaded these two files from the Nougat Update for FRD-L04 Honor 8 (USA):
Full ROM – http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1585/g104/v83098/f1/full/update.zip
Data File – http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...FRD-L04_hw_usa/update_full_FRD-L04_hw_usa.zip
I have tried to flash them both from TWRP, but I always get the error: Updater process ended error 7
Can anyone please guide me through the process and let me know what I'm doing wrong?
I have look for a guide or post where this is detailed, but without luck. Can anyone link me to a guide on how to reinstall the stock firmware in my Honor 8 FRD-L04?
Thanks! :good:

The best way (if you don't want to unlock bootloader) is to flash a downgrade package first, then dload the Marshmallow update and finally your preferred Nougat update though Firmware Finder.

Thanks for the response. In my case, my phone is rooted, so I don't mind unlocking the bootloader. Would you please elaborate on how to do it that way?

Unlock your bootloader and follow this guide:https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/guide-flashing-unapproved-firmwares-t3668306/
Choose the B385 firmware or any newer firmware available for your region.

So I decided to finally reinstall the stock firmware in my Honor 8 FRD-L04 in B389, and this is where the nightmare began.
- I made a full backup with TWRP just in case and I decided I wanted to start from the earliest firmware possible available.
- I started unrooting my phone using the UnSU zip by Osmosis.
- Then I flash via bootloader the recovery and boot image of the firmware B360.
- I flashed the rollback package from the Huawei official site with the B122 firmware also available at the same place. I saved the rollback package in my root directory in the dload folder, and loaded it with the 3-button method. After this I wasn't able to boot my phone normally, I was stuck in a boot loop. I still continue with the next firmware, the B122, and it was successfully loaded (this also relocked my bootloader).
- It is important to say I clear many times the cache and wipe/erase data through stock recovery options, and also tried to erecover but I wans't able to connect to the WiFi. I guess something was missing (at this point I was already going crazy).
- I was still stucked at a boot loop after loading the B122, so I decided to unlock my bootloader and flash the twrp 3.1.1-1-frd.img
- From there I tried to wipe data and cache and system and everything, but I wasn't able because an error saying unable to mount always appeared.
- After rebooting, since I already had unlocked the bootloader, the initial message prompting: "press power to continue, press for 3 seconds for erecovery, etc..." appeared.
- I enter the erecovery options with the hope it will do something... and it did!!! I could connect this time through WiFi and the system asked to update the firmware and many other things it said at that moment. This was the first time I felt relieved through the night.
- The phone updated perfectly, it started at the firmware B122 and I kept updating it until I reached the B389.
- I unlocked the bootloader again and rooted the phone. And everything is running smooth as silk!
I know this is a very long story, but I just want to get it out there in case anyone is facing the same problem I just passed. Hope this helps someone and brings peace to them! =) Good luck!

I believe B385 is not functional with TWRP. Flash B360 and reboot to recovery. This should go to stock recovery, where you will have to do a factory reset. I got EMUI working, but it refuses to update to any newer version (it does show B380 but doesn't update). Also there should be updates after making that update. The updates did work for other people, so you may be able to have it working.

Rebrand from BKL-L09 (C432) to BKL-L09 (C636)

Hi,
Can someone help me rebrand from BKL-L09 (C432) to BKL-L09 (C636)?
I have 2 Honor view 10 phones (originally BKL-AL20) that are rebranded by the shop were I bought them to BKL-L09. Unfortunetly they are stuck on an old version!
Current SW:
BKL-L09 8.0.0.110(C432)
But since they are not getting updates I was planning on flashing complete OTA update but I think rather flash C636. Or is some other region more recommended?
Can someone please provide me with steps and files to flash C363?
I also have a Mate 8 were I recently rebranded from C432 to DL00 and I only needed to flash the DL00 oeminfo and then went to erecovery and downloaded/installed latest firmware from there without any other steps. Would this work for the Honor view 10 if i get the C636 oeminfo for it?
Best Regards,
Leo

Yes the rebrand is same on view 10, flashing oeminfo file and flash regarding ROM.
But there's a major problem here: there is no more free way to unlock the bootloader.
Even if your device is unlocked, if you rebrand it, most prolly you will lost the unlock status and your unlock code wont work.
Means you need to pay third party unlock service (again).
I'm on right opposite from you, having C636 (im on EMUI9 with stock recovery so i cant provide you a oeminfo file), thinking of rebranding to C432.
Why would you like to move to C636 (Asia Other, means SEA and some)? C432 (Europe Unlock) is quite nice region I think?
Europe is the most huawei selling region except china mainland, receiving most updates as i know.
If you are living in asia you can try India region, which is also quite update-receiving region i think.

Well the reason I want to do anything at all is because the phones are not receiving any updates. Both phones are stuck at 8.0.0.110.
You might be right, my earlier experience was that Europe did not get that much love as China/Asia. But I maybe should try to get phones updated. Problem is I have tried and nothing works. I tried built in update, HiSuite, HiCare and dload method.
I really y don't know why it fails, probably something went wrong when the phones were rebranded by the shop.

Did you try the No-check recovery? Mine was fishy too (rebranded by the shop, no OTA came),
so i did clean 'ROM' flash with No-check recovery and clean 'ROM+all other things' flash with HiSuite.

Now I'm thinking of flashing stock recovery via fastboot (in case something is wrong with it) and then try flash stock rom rom via fastboot.
I found the following for recovery https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-view-10/how-to/stock-recovery-getting-to-stock-t3754797
The question is what need to be done to flash stock rom?
I guess downloading stock from FF, what files are need for fastboot flash this device?

download stock ROM from FF, extract SYSTEM.img, via fastboot: fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img.
straight and simple. in fact you can flash most of .img by this, kind of manual HiSuite.
you did dload method (using stock recovery to flash stock ROM) and failed,
which might means your IMEI is not matching with your region properly (the shop rebranded it wrong),
so i recommended No-check Recovery, which is Modded stock recovery that does not check IMEI while dload process.
